Cohiba Siglo I UNK18  (COHRW)

 

  I got a PSP 6 pack of these a while back and have smoked half of them so far. i wish i had gotten a full box of these, the 2 i have smoked up to this point have been an easy 93/100. it seems like the perfect morning cigar to me, light, creamy and the perfect size for a quick 30 min smoke with a cup of coffee. 

   i normally take the cigar out of my wineador at least an hour before i want to smoke it but i was in a rush and wanted to smoke this while i walked. i think it may have affected the burn and smoke because unlike the other two i tried, this one had some issues with the burn. almost the entire first half of the cigar was kinda harsh and just tasted of burnt tobacco instead of the smooth creaminess i got from the first two.  after the first half it started to smooth out and became that creamy sweet flavor i got from the others. the only way i can describe the flavor is a slightly sweet cream with an occasional hint of coffee and spice on the retrohale. 

 

i would rate this 86/100 lower then the others i have had because of the harshness of the first half and the burn issues. everything else such as the draw, smoke output, and construction were perfect. the issues were probably my fault but maybe i just got one that was kinda off. either way knowing how good these can be most of the time, i would say they are well worth the price for a box.

 

thanks again to Pres and FOH for the RyJ petite corona prize box i got. with that added to the wineador i'm close to being ready to hibernate for the winter.....i think i can fit a couple more boxes in there though???
